to the fact that many persons call Governor
Foraker General" and said contemptuously,
"Why do they do that9 He never got any
higher than captain in the army" The opin-
ion is quite prevalent that captain was as
good general, and some captains better
entitled to the title than some generals who

Two ships are now unloading cargoes of
sugar at a Philadelphia wharf, both cargoes
having been purchased by a refining company
of that city. The government will realize
$16O,000 duty from one cargo, it having been
shipped from British India, but will receive
nothing from the other, as it was grown in the
Sandwich Islands and is entitled to the benefit
of the reciprocity treaty.

Low WALLACE and che Engl.sh Pnblisher.

Lew Wallace and the English Publisher.
Brander Mathews, in Princeton Review.
When General Wallace was last in London,
he went to Warne's shop and bought copy
of Ben Hur He examined it for minute, and
then asked to the head of the firm, whose at
tention he called to certain alterations made in
England without any authority from him, II
yon have changed my tiile," said General
Wallace; land you have written an entirely new
preface and singed my name to it." The publish
er hesitated, and at last stammered forth that
they had thought they could improve upon 1t.
"And have You taken any other liberties with
my bookl" pursued General Wallace, and Mr..
Warne answered that they had left out the
story of Ben-Hur. and made few minor
changes. And the British publisher who made
this confession has never offered to make any
payment to the American author, whom he had
dispoiled and whose work he had disfgured.

DAVIS AND FAalsG.slLD

Extremes meet in politics as in other
affairs of life. Jeff Davis, who recently
made a very conciliatory sreech, has
again spilled the fat IN the FIRE aud joined
hands with Commander Fsirchild OF the
G. A. r. in condemning Adiutsnt-Gen
eral Drum for suggesting the return OF
captured battle flags. Davis IS not quite
as v,ndictive as Commander Furchild,
though he says the order of the War De-
partment to return the flags is olatlon
OF all known military precedents. Mr.
Davis seems to forget that he owes his
life to violation of the presidents es-
tabished by monarchicsl governments,
as it is not the custom OF dsspots to
hermit the leaders in uncuccrsfui re
bellions to escape the halter. He shou Il
